I haven't sent my forms off yet but they're in the pipeline for next week.
Anyway, what I wanted to know is if you have several children of your own, how do you manage to fit childminding in around them?
I have a 5 year old (6 in September) who is at school between 8.50am and 3.10pm.
I also have 3 year old twins (4 in September) who are at nursery 9am to 11.30am three days per week and 9am to 12.30pm on the other two.
I already have 2 possible mindees lined up for after school care but I'm not sure about the rest of the day now. I could probably alter the twins' hours at nursery and pay for them to stay until 12.30pm every day but it seems like its going to be a headache trying to fit mindees in around them for the next year at least. They start school in September 2009 so I guess things will be much easier then!
How do you work it all out??:eek:
Thanks.
